《Guardians : Awakening of Athene》Chapter 5: The Talking Rabbit
Advertisement
- Three days ago - Outside the Castle of Verona -
The wind chilled through Alice's silver hair, she wandered through the forest. It's been two days since she left the castle, all the food and water were mostly gone due to the war. She recognized she needed food but as a princess, she never hunted nor even been outside the castle. Wandering aimlessly, hoping to find someone or something that could guide her in this world.
She walked on the beautiful snow and passes by uncountable amounts of winter bugs. For hours, there is no human insight, no voice to be heard and no sound to be made. It feels as if she's trapped, cold and lonely with no source of warmth nor food. Her body weakens as her steps became slower, affected by the cold weather. Her breath heavily slows down, hugging herself to fight against the cold.
"No! Don't Sir Lancelot's isn't food!" A squeaky voice echoes through the woods. Noises of footsteps came closer as Alice scans her vision against the forest.
—Wisdom Eye — She chanted. Intangibles data spread through her vision.
- Command: Search: Sir Lancelot" - Alice's voice barely hearable.
Her vision landed on a dashing rabbit running from a snow boar. Alice laughs gently as she walks toward the rabbit. She hasn't smiled in a while, not to say laughing. Rabbits are common in Verona, they are a source of food for hunters and some even take them in as pets. But a talking rabbit is rare, most monsters do not have human speech expect for highly intelligent humanoids. But a talking rabbit, Alice doesn't know anything like that.
She lifts her right hand, revealing her palms. White mana particles flow through her arms, creating a spellcaster's crest floating on her palm.

— Angel Feather : Command : Kill : Target : Boar —
Feathers pure as snow scattered and flew across the forest. Launching themselves into every boar within their range. Blood spattered from the boars, as the feathers pierce through their hearts.
Lancelot trips and rolls on the white grass stopping himself at a tree trunk. He shakes his head, only to see the albino snow boar howling at him. Jaws opening wide, thrusting his body against the helpless rabbit. "I am sorry! Please don't kill me!" The rabbit covers his head and ducked in onto the snow shaking in fear.
Angelic feathers swim with the wind and launched itself into the heart of the monster. Blood splatter and spread across Lancelot's adorable face.
"Are you alright?" Alice appears in front of him. Reaching her hands and picking him up with both arms.
The rabbit opens his eyes, a beautiful black haired with silver highlights appeared in this visions. "Hi, I am Sir Lancelot! The bravest warrior in the history of Verona!" He explains himself in excitement.
Alice smiles gently and made a small enchanting laugh. "But you are a rabbit, how can you talk?" Her angelic goddess smile and her enchanting voice captivated him.
He stunned himself, unable to respond to her question, only leaving a dull and dumb expression on his face. Only a while, he managed to agitate his mind and made a small voice. "Take me with you" The rabbit's gentle voice breakthrough Alice's broken heart. She realizes the rabbit must be lonely as well, being hunted by the stronger beasts. Being weak and alone in this cruel world, you are only a fodder.
Her voice deepens as she stares into the blue sky. "For a rabbit to survive, he must grow horns."
She dropped the rabbit onto the snow and directs her body towards the dead boar. She closes her eyes and chanted. -Athene-

Blank space of white puzzle pieces appears in front of her. "Search: Fire Magic -
Pieces of puzzle pieces disappear one after another, but there were still many more. Alice became impatient. "Athene, I need something to roast meat!" She shouted and her voice echoes throughout the space. All the glass pieces vanished, only leaving one flowing to Alice's hands. She opens her eyes and comes in contact with the boar, resting her hand on his dead body.
- Ignite - She chanted, a small fire appears and spreads through the dead meat.
Burning it and cooking it until edible. The delicious smell of roasted meat triggers their stomach to growl, she ripped out one of the legs and threw it to Lancelot. She stares at him with a serious expression. "Eat and get stronger", she continues to break the meat into pieces and devours like a monster who hasn't eaten in years.
